“Please do my work because I can’t do it myself”
Ok.
I chose warlocks because they are the class most significantly impacted by the itemization changes as they gain the most dps. Warriors, rogues, mages, hunters, etc all gain significantly less dps.

Running through the DPS spreadsheet for a 180 second fight
340 dps
versus
301 dps
So every lock gains on average, 40 dps in absolute bis (which they won’t have, as this thread is purely speculating about how fast a guild will clear MC). To reiterate, I chose warlocks because they are the class most significantly impacted by the itemization changes as they gain the most dps. They will also be capable of doing the most dps because while they’re running 1.12 itemization, they are not including items added after 1.2 such as titanic leggings, etc.
The average raid takes about 26 dps
Let’s take a look at Magmadar
https://web.archive.org/web/20060413193842/http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/ErikVKing/Magmadar-BeastLore.jpg
826,000 hp
26 raid dps in 1.12 gear will put out 8,840 dps
26 raid dps in 1.2 gear will put out 7,826 dps.
in 1.12 gear, Magmadar dies in about 93.4 seconds
in 1.2 gear, Magmadar dies in about 105.5 seconds.
12 seconds, seems like a lot right? Well, that’s just on Magmadar. Let’s take a look at Gehennas who has 351,780 hp.
1.12 gear, Gehennas dies in 39.79 seconds
1.2 gear, Gehennas dies in 45 seconds.
Ragnaros?
124 seconds vs
140 seconds
Itemization. Is. Not. A. Big. Deal.
Consumable usage is. But I’m done doing your work. just lmao that you never responded to this.
